A composite structure for an electric energy storage device is envisioned. The structure is made of a metal substrate and a metal oxide layer disposed over a majority of the metal substrate with the metal oxide layer being comprised of a first and second metals. Carbon nanotubes are disposed on the metal oxide layer. In an embodiment the first metal and the second metal are each selected from a group consisting of: iron, nickel, aluminum, cobalt, copper, chromium, and gold.

Structure for electric energy storage using carbon nanotubes

A device, such as a nonvolatile memory device, and methods for forming the device in an integrated process tool are provided. The method includes depositing a tunnel oxide layer on a substrate, exposing the tunnel oxide layer to a plasma so that the plasma alters a morphology of a surface and near surface of the tunnel oxide to form a plasma altered near surface. Nanocrystals are then deposited on the altered surface of the tunnel oxide.
